Blackboard Drawings 1919-1924
Rudolf Steiner recorded his view of the world in many books, but also in over 5,000 lectures. Here, he explained his ideas on a wide range of subjects: education, science, the social question, art, architecture, medicine and agriculture. Steiner spoke freely, using only minimal notes. But when explaining conceptually difficult subject matter he frequently resorted to illustrating what he was saying with coloured chalks on a large blackboard. After the lecture the drawings were rubbed out and ...read more

Broken Vessels
Today a great deal is written about holistic medicine as an approach to healing that integrates body, mind, and spirit. In these lectures, given to a mixed audience of doctors and priest-theologians, Rudolf Steiner renews the ancient tradition of "pastoral medicine", which involves the working together of trained physicians with those having the care of the patient's soul and spirit. He shows that healing is not possible unless it takes into account the invisible as well as the visible ...read more

Extending Practical Medicine
Rudolf Steiner collaborated with physician Ita Wegman to write this classic introduction to spiritual medicine, intended to revitalize the healing arts through spiritual knowledge. Without underrating or dismissing modern medicine, they extend allopathic medicine beyond its present materialistic outlook to a fuller view of the human condition. They felt "it was important to add to existing knowledge the insights that can come from true perception of the spirit, enabling us to understand the ...read more

First Steps in Inner Development
Rudolf Steiner is perhaps best known for his influence and wisdom in the fields of education, agriculture, medicine, science, and art.

It is often forgotten that it was as a spiritual teacher that he made these contributions. Unfortunately, while his immediate students had the advantage of Steiner as a personal guide to their inner lives, later readers have had only his written works to guide them.

Steiner, however, did give a few lectures on inner development—especially on ...read more

Introducing Anthroposophical Medicine
In these twenty lectures, given to medical doctors and students, Steiner presents a new approach to the art of healing, based on the insights of spiritual science.

Taking account of modern medical knowledge and practice, and deeply versed in alchemical, Paracelsian, and naturopathic approaches, as well as homeopathy, aroma therapy, and other “alternative” therapies, Steiner demonstrates, on the basis of his own researches, how a truly integrated whole-person medicine is possible—one that ...read more

Rosicrucian Wisdom
Steiner's is unique, in that it combines esoteric teaching with practical suggestions for social development. He is best known today for the application of his ideas to education, medicine, and agriculture. None of this, however, could have developed without the coherent and profound body of spiritual knowledge at the very core of his work.

In Rosicrucian Wisdom (one of his most complete introductions to modern spirituality), Steiner’s basis is the stream of Rosicrucian teaching—not the ...read more

Seeing Christ in Sickness and Healing
Anthroposophical medicine encompasses not only the body also the soul and the individual biography, bringing a broader dimension to modern medicine. Peter Selg shows how anthroposophical therapies draw heavily on the Christian concept of healing as seen in the New Testament. Practically, he suggests that healers and carers can, through meditation, allow the healing power of Christ to work. They must also recognise that sickness can be part of a person's destiny, and that the process of healing ...read more

Handbook for Rhythmical Einreibungen: According to Wegman / Hauschka
Rhythmical Einreibungen are gentle, rhythmical forms of therapeutic massage used by nurses, carers and therapists working out of anthroposophy. (The word ‘Einreibung’ refers to the application of an oil or ointment to the body.) The methods - developed by Dr Ita Wegman and Dr Margarethe Hauschka at the beginning of the twentieth century - were first used exclusively in medicine and nursing, but have since been applied more widely in care and nursing homes, hospitals and clinics, as well as in ...read more

Animals are Our Brothers and Sisters, The
Respected surgeon and medical doctor Werner Hartinger investigates the claims and counterclaims concerning experimentation on animals. Through meticulous analysis he comes to the conclusion that animal experiments are not only unnecessary, but that the experiments themselves are questionable and lead to meaningless results. The cruelty imposed upon animals is therefore not only gratuitous, he argues, but is unhelpful in the development of good medicine for human beings.

Hartinger writes ...read more

Author Stephen Harrod Buhner explores this heart-centered mode of perception, helping readers to learn about the medicinal uses of plants, and how to gather information directly from the heart of ...read more

"If Purdey is right, he deserves a Nobel Prize for medicine. Instead he has been shot at, his phone lines have been cut and his house has been burnt down.

Anthroposophy: A Concise Introduction to Rudolf Steiner's Spiritual Philosophy
Rudolf Steiner's work is recognized today largely due to the prominence of the international Steiner school movement, biodynamic agriculture, anthroposophical (holistic) medicine, and so on. However, the comprehensive spiritual philosophy that stands behind these practical initiatives is not so well known. In this concise presentation, based on years of giving introductory courses on the subject, van Oort presents an overview of key aspects of Steiner's thought. He deals with concepts such as ...read more
